Grand Canyon National Park, in Northern Arizona, encompasses 278 miles (447 km) of the Colorado River and adjacent uplands. Located on ancestral homeland of 11 Associated Tribes, Grand Canyon is one of the most spectacular examples of erosion anywhere in the world—unmatched in the incomparable vistas it offers visitors from the rims.
A 277-mile (446 km) canyon separates the park into North and South Rims. The South Rim of the Grand Canyon is open all year, receives about 90% of the park visitation, and has two visitor entrances: the South Visitor entrance and the East Visitor entrance at Desert View.
The North Rim of the park has a smaller developed area, receives about 10% of park visitation, and is open seasonally, May 15 through October 15. There is one visitor entrance to the North Rim. Further west of the North Rim entrance is the remote and semi-primitive Tuweep area of the park, which has one visitor entrance and requires a permit reservation in advance of visiting.
The average distance across the canyon is only 10 miles, however, the drive between the park's South Rim Village and the North Rim Village is about 212 miles and takes about 4 1/2 hours to drive. It takes time, planning, and effort to visit both rims in one trip.
